Hello everyone

I am using an ESP8266-07 chip for SHT21 (temperature and humidity)sensor measurement over i2c connection with nodemcu firmware. I would like to avoid chip heating up by putting the chip in deep sleep between measurements. I used the node.dsleep() function for this function and most of the times the function is not working. I have also connected the GPIO 16 to the reset pin. strangely when i use the function at front, it goes to deep sleep and when i use it anywhere else it doesnt work. I know it sounds strange and illogical. But i would like to receive suggestions about the prerequisites for using the function and interdependencies for the same. How can i use this function to make it work ?.


Regards
